Dee's 28th birthday tablescape - lime green & brown

Hiddy Ho Sweet Friends,

How are you this fine day??

Hope it is going well...............

Mine is going well, have just been editing pics as a lefty

since my nerve is pinched off again,  so smarting some, 

so will be going to the chiropractor later this afternoon. 

 Thank the Lord for this man..............

Well, below you will see the Birthday girl, this is our daughter

 Dee with our furry blurry grandaughter dog, Rosie.

She decided to turn her head just as I snapped the picture.........

Since her fav color right now is apple green,decided to do a

 table for her in that color. Had planned something different 

using palmetto palm branches,  but they turn brown too fast,

 so hubby saved the day without even knowing it. and wound

 up seeing green flowers in a bouqet mixed with oranges and 

reds, when he went to Sam's  so just decided to grab them just

 for the green flowers, since  he  knew I was doing the table in

 that color.

So here are the chrysanthemums he got and

there are other small ones that are green

too.

 Had planned to put the palm seeds in the glass 

cylinders below,  but again because they turn  

brown so quickly, decided to use limes instead.

as the flowers came with these pretty green

leaves on a stems.

 So got the limes and decided to add some

leaves in with them,  then on Sunday hubby

cut me some palm see branches and I pulled

the seeds off a few hours before and put them

on the table,  that being the lil olive looking things.

 and of course, I also put them in the centerpiece

as well.  Was trying to accomplish a tropical

look as well,  since she loves that too.

.

Here is the center of the centerpiece and you can

see that I added palmetto seeds to it, and also this

adorable lil turtle my SIL Susan gave me on Friday.

Isn't he adorable...........he is a lil box that opens up
to put jewelry or rings in, but thought he was the
 perfect bling for this table.

Thanks Susan,  I love him!

a look down the table from the birthday girls spot.

I use the egg cups for butter for rolls.

and this was from the other end.

Down the center of the table with the candles as well.

 The girls had fan napkins with a lil vases of flowers

 I just used a stretchy pony tail holder to cinch in the napkin,
that is of course, underneath the flower!

 The guys got folded napkins with these pretty leaves and a
fuzzy type carnation.........they sort of fell apart once I cut the
stems,  so just used pcs. here, and around the limes in the
central centerpiece.  Have never seen anything like it before
nor has my son who is in agriculture, but it defintiely had a
stem that looked just like a carnation stem.  Interesting!

a blessed lady.  Also, we heard that

they think they found the problem

with our car and hopefully it will

be done tomorrow.  That was good

news..............course, we aren't 

counting our chickens before they

hatch, if you know what I mean!! lol
